Fostering

Fostering an animal can be very rewarding. It is full of watching an animal grow, whether they grow in size or in trust, it is amazing to watch either way! Fostering is a commitment and we do ask that you really think about the length of time that you are available to foster. Moving the dogs around is not ideal and can be very stressful, remember these animals have probably not had a lot of stability in their life and we want to help build trust with them. Please note that we can only accept fosters in the Greater Sacramento area.

Types of Fosters:

• Pregnant dogs
• Nursing dogs
• Adult dogs
• Bottle babies
• Puppies 
• Large breed dogs
• Medical

The time frame can vary depending on the type of foster you choose. We will work hard to make sure we fit you with the right foster dog based on your comfort level.

Volunteers help us with just about everything and as we expand we will need more help! Currently we need help in the following areas:

Types of Volunteers:

• Events
• Processing applications
• Dog Walking
• Grant Writing 
• Transport

We currently hold a standing adoption event at Pet Food Express on the 3rd Saturday of every month. Once you complete the application and the orientation we will be in contact with you.
